Scott Knox is the President and CEO of the Institute of Canadian Agencies, with a mission is to Amplify, Protect and Transform the agency sector through advocacy, awards, community, consultancy, insight, networking, research and training.
But when it came to pitching, instead of either publishing another industry guideline on how to do it, or joining the chorus of those wanting to ‘ditch the pitch’, they launched Pitch Watch, a confidential service that enables agencies to report both negative & positive experiences with client pitches, and throughout a client relationship.
           Scott shares the inspiration for launching Pitch Watch and the development of a solution to the outdated pitch process - the Qualification Based Selection process.

Scott Knox And Darren Talk About Pitch Watch And A better Way To Select Agencies

Leah Power is the Executive Vice President of the Institute of Canadian Agencies and the lead on the development of the Qualification Based Selection For Agencies. This episode picks up from the conversation with Scott Knox, the President and CEO of the Institute of Canadian Agencies, and explores the solutions for clients wanting a better way to select an advertising agency or any type. 
Leah shares how as an agency finance professional, the pitch process was the thing she most wanted to change, and how the Qualification Based Selection (QBS) process, used in the USA for the selection of engineering, architecture and other professional infrastructure services became the basis of the ICAs solution.
We discuss the principles underpinning the QBS process and the pitching myths that it addresses and busts in developing a process that works better for agencies, but more importantly, for their clients.

Darren Woolley & Tom Fogden Discuss How Marketers And Procurement Can Better Manager Agency Pitches

Jeremy Taylor, Managing Director and Mark Smith, Business Director of TrinityP3 UK discusses the complexities and challenges of the pitch process in the advertising industry an explore the notion that while many believe the pitch process is broken, it may simply need to evolve to better suit the modern landscape of marketing and media. 
The conversation delves into the importance of chemistry in client-agency relationships, the role of procurement, and the need for a more streamlined and engaging pitch process. Mark and Jeremy introduce the concept of a 'BetterPitch' that emphasizes fun, focus, and flexibility, aiming to foster better relationships and outcomes in the advertising world.
As an industry, we need to move away from the question that is so often asked: “What should we do instead of pitching?” Rather, the questions we should be asking are: “What is the most appropriate way to pitch?” and “How can we make the pitching process better”.
